      My weakness for instant gratification has left me with a first world problem:  which to use as the competition pair?

      White's Semi-Dress:

      Viberg Boondocker:

      Both have less than 30 wears.  Opinions anyone?

        Honestly, and with no bias, the SD's will evolve better in my opinion.

          ^I agree, BUT there are going to be a lot of very similar pairs of SDs in the comp –- so either way you'll be good

            Same as jeans, it's more about the person wearing them, their life, and what they do to care for them, than the boots themselves.

                I have a hard time seeing a rough out pair having a chance to win

                  my vote goes towards the SD's…just because they're badass and because they'll fade nicer but also "slower" as the boondockers which isn't a bad thing cuz we're talking about two years of wear and abuse right here!

                      I'll be the contrarian here and say go with the boondockers.  No reason other than the fact that I think they're cooler looking boots.

                      By the way, I feel your dilemma- due to my impulse control failings, I have two, possibly three pairs from which to choose (I'll know about the third pair when they arrive in a few days).

                        Listen to the poor little rich boys, moaning about which pair of $400 - $500 boots to wear  😉

                          Was wondering if anyone is planning on doing a boot care segment. I am pretty new to the world of leather boots.  On the viberg website alone there is viberg leather preservative, neatsfoot oil, arctic dubbin and huberd’s shoe grease.
                          I know you can use saddle soap to clean and I have seen others use mink oil for leather care? So whats what, when do I clean, when do I condition and what can I protect my boot from eg water, beer.

                              I have read that before and I don't think the info there is that great. Some posts at the end are ok, but I think with the knowledge here the great minds could come up with some great info. When I am sinking $700 into a pair of boots I want to know what I am doing.

                                The only thing I'm putting on my boots is spilled beer and the blood of my enemies.
